Letter  of  Transmittal 


Virginia  State  Library,  January  10,  1911. 
7  he  Library  Board  of  the  Virginia  State  Library. 
Gentlemeis  : 

Some  years  ago  Mr.  J.  H.  Whitty,  of  Richmond,  made  a  copy  of  the 
copyright  entries  registered  in  the  office  of  the  clerlt  of  the  United  States 
District  Court  at  Richmond,  1790-1844.  These  original  entries  were  then  in 
the  possession  of  Judge  Robert  W.  Hughes.  Mr.  Whitty  has  generously  pre- 
sented his  copy  to  the  Virginia  State  Library.  I  herewith  transmit  the  list 
of  titles  as  submitted  by  him.  With  the  exception  of  a  few  corrections  of 
evident  mistakes  in  copying,  the  titles  have  been  allowed  to  stand  exactly 
as  he  copied  them,  in  spelling,  punctuation  and  capitalization.  Undoubt- 
edly, some  errors  have  crept  in  in  the  copy  made  by  Mr.  Whitty,  and  the 
absence  of  the  original  records  has  made  it  impossible  to  correct  them. 

The  publication  of  the  entries  will  prove  of  very  great  interest  to  all  stu- 
dents of  Virginia  bibliography. 

Very  respectfully, 

H.   R.   McILWAlNE, 

State  Librarian.

Introduction 


The  following  titles  entered  for  copyright  in  the  State  of  Virginia  cover 
the  period  from  the  year  1790  to  1844.  The  Continental  Congress  framed  a 
resolution  May  2,  1783,  recommending  to  the  several  States  a  copyright  law. 
This  was  favorably  acted  upon  by  Virginia  in  October,  1785.  No  records 
have  been  discovered  of  State  copyright  entries  in  Virginia.  Copyright  en- 
tries were  first  registered  in  the  United  States  District  Court  of  Virginia  by 
William  Marshall,  clerk,  a  brother  of  Chief  Justice  John  Marshall.  They 
continued  to  be  registered  in  that  office  until  the  year  1870,  when  Congress 
transferred  the  matter  to  the  Librarian  of  Congress. 

It  has  always  been  supposed  that  the  early  record  books  of  copyright  reg- 
istration for  Virginia,  prior  to  1837,  were  destroyed  by  fire  at  the  evacua- 
tion of  Richmond.  My  belief  is  that  there  were  no  record  books,  but  that 
the  loose  title  pages  of  which  I  speak  later,  some  of  which  were  endorsed 
with  the  names  of  proprietors,  constituted  the  only  record  of  the  period. 
The  record  books  of  a  later  period  in  the  Library  of  Congress  are  rather 
meager  and  comprise,  according  to  a  recent  statement  of  the  register  of 
copyrights,  the  following:  "A  large  blank  record  book  containing  a  few 
registrations  upon  the  first  pages,  the  earliest  of  which  is  dated  1837,  fol- 
lowed by  a  registration  of  1851  and  some  scattering  registrations  up  to 
April,  1870.  A  second  record  book  containing  some  registrations  begin- 
ning on  the  9th  day  of  May,  1867,  and  running  to  the  22d  of  June,  1870.  A 
third  small  volume  containing  a  few  registrations  on  the  first'  thirty-two 
pages  running  from  the  9th  day  of  May,  1867,  to  the  22d  day  of  June,  1870, 
seeming  to  be  a  duplicate  of  the  second  book." 

The  late  Judge  Robert  W.  Hughes  had  in  his  possession  a  record  of  copy- 
right entries,  consisting  of  loose  title  pages,  dating  from  1790  to  the  year 
1844.  He  allowed  me  to  make  an  exact  copy  many  years  ago,  which  I  now 
place  for  publication  with  the  State  Library  of  Virginia.  This  record  gives 
the  exact  title  page  descriptions,  with  most  of  the  dates  of  entry  and  names 
of  authors  and  proprietors.  Prior  to  a  disastrous  fire  which  destroyed  a 
portion  of  my  library  some  years  ago,  I  had  one  of  the  largest  collections  of 
Virginia  books  extant.  The  study  of  Virginia  titles  has  always  been  a 
pleasant  pastime  with  me.  Many  of  the  titles  in  this  record  have  never 
been  met  with  by  me  elsewhere.  The  record  is  invaluable  to  Virginia  bib- 
liography, especially  the  "Henkel"  German  entries,  one  of  which  is,  I  be- 
lieve, the  title  of  the  first  catechism  printed  in  Virginia  in  both  the  German 
and  English  languages.  The  1816  entry  indicates  that  this  was  the  fourth 
edition,  enlarged  and  improved. 

The  record  reveals  a  writing  of  Samuel  Kercheval,  the  title  of  which  has 
not  been  definitely  known  before,  I  believe,  and  to  which  reference  is  made 


0  REPORT    OF    THE    STATE    LIBRARIAN 

by  Jefferson  in  a  letter  to  Kercheval  of  July  12,  1816;  also  a  title  page  of  a 
Richmond  directory  earlier  than  that  of  Maddox  in  1819.  Some  early  Vir- 
ginia books  were  not  entered  for  registration  and  others  may  have  escaped 
registry  through  the  early  methods  employed  by  the  clerks  of  the  courts. 
This  record  may  be  regarded  as  a  useful  presentation  of  some  of  the  im- 
portant publishing  activities  of  Virginia  for  the  years  1790  to  1844.
